Need advice

[peteyrulz 82]

here's my situation...was denied 3x by my insurance to have VSG here in US...hired lawyers & they have been working my case since mid-October. My last correspondence with them was

14-Jan, when I was told they were talking with my plan's admin. I have not heard back or heard an answer on my case, even after several emails & a phone call. These are great folks with an outstanding reputation. I am getting impatient as spring approaches. My plans are to have VSG in TJ if I am denied. (Dr. Corvala)

I'm afraid if I schedule TJ surgery & spend the extra money for flight & deposit, I'll get a call saying I was finally approved by my insurance. That's just my luck! ???? My guts (no pun intended) are telling me I've been denied. The lawyer asked me to not contact insurance during this appeals process, which I completely understand.

So...my question to you is...

WWBPD? (what would Bari Pal do?)

Anyone else ever been in this situation?

Hi Petey, if I knew then what I know now, I would have waited. Be patient and only make gigantic decisions like that unless you are absolutely 100% positive of all the situations.

I don't play when it comes to my money & would be livid with myself for jumping the gun and paying when I just could have waited...Seriously, you've waited this long, what's a few more months or even a year?
